Open MRI & Diagnostic Imaging

You won’t need to travel away from Dahlonega, Georgia for medical imaging services. Instead, you can simply have your MRI and X-rays performed at Northview Associates. State-of-the-art diagnostic imaging is just another way that we provide extraordinary care, close to home.

Open MRI

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans provide highly detailed images of anatomical structures, especially soft tissue. An MRI is a painless procedure and simply requires that you remain motionless while the images are taken. An open MRI machine allows images to be taken without the narrow “tunnel” of traditional MRI equipment. Open MRI is ideal for people with anxiety in small, closed spaces or those who are obese. Additionally, open MRI allows the examination of small areas of the body, such as just the shoulder or just the knee.
